With the upcoming FozzieSov changes, it is now more important than ever to consider utilizing an instant messaging system for your corp or alliance. Since many more alliances will be able to plant their GÇ£flagsGÇ¥ in null sec territory, they will eventually be looking into an instant messaging service.
With that in mind, many successful null sec entities utilize google hangouts or xmpp GÇ£jabberGÇ¥ servers as their instant messaging system. The main advantage of these systems is to be able to broadcast to all of the corp or alliance members in order to summon additional players to log in for a particular meeting, operation or event. This is especially important (as an example) if an enemy group of players have active entosis links on one of your stations and you need people to login quickly to respond to the threat.
Based on the above, I propose that said EVE players make use of the GÇ£SlackGÇ¥ instant messaging platform as an alternative to jabber. Slack is an app that is used by gamers and businesses alike because it is free, usable via browser and smartphone. It allows you to create public and private channels and allows for users to ping each other, specific channels and the entire server.
Eve players typically use jabber in the same exact way but has some disadvantages in terms of usability, user management, client setup and the lack of a simple smartphone app when compared to Slack. Players typically have avoided using Slack for their instant messaging service because of administrative concerns surrounding the lack of a reliable authentication processGǪ until now.
This is where I come in.
